IPv6 Posted January 12, 2019 Posted January 12, 2019 I am using PSD format for exchanging images and with latest beta found a bug in PSD export: In resulted PSD all layers, that are HIDDEN in original AP file - all of them are completely empty. They are here, they are named properly and stay on right hierarchy place - but fully transparent, no pixels in them. Layer, that was visible in original AP file are exported as usual, with all pixels This happens with all 3 PSD export presets predick 1 Quote
Staff Chris B Posted January 14, 2019 Staff Posted January 14, 2019 Hey IPv6, I have reproduced this... I'm not sure what's changed to cause this but I'll get this passed on for you. Thank you. predick 1 Quote How to format a bug report | Learning Resources | List of V2 FAQs | YouTube Tutorials
Henry Stahle Posted March 21, 2019 Posted March 21, 2019 I can confirm this, but from ClipStudio too. I was working on an illustration. Exported my line art with all flat colour fills. Saved a psd file from Clip Studio EX to Affinity Photo beta 1.7.0.258. All line art and flat fills were hidden on importing and opened in Affinity for some editing. They were hidden again before export. When I opened my psd file back in Clip Studio everything hidden was gone. If I make the export in a hidden group containing all layers inside the group visible, the layers are not gone, they remain. It seems like just hidden layers are empty, not hidden groups. Quote

IPv6 Posted June 2, 2019 Author Posted June 2, 2019 Problem still exist in latest beta (367) As well as on latest beta on Mac Quote
Jeff123 Posted July 4, 2019 Posted July 4, 2019 This bug still exists as of 7/3/2019. When I load a photoshop 2018 file in Affinity Photo, the hidden (unchecked) layers are there and everything looks good. When I then export the same file back out to PSD format (Preset: PSD Preserve Accuracy), the hidden (unchecked) layers don't get saved. I've verified this by loading the file in Photoshop 2018.

eobet Posted October 1, 2019 Posted October 1, 2019 The problem is still there! Isn't this critical enough to warrant a hotfix? I mean, people who are halfway between switching might reconsider with blatantly obvious issues like this... Quote

PSD import and export were designed with one-time use in mind (i.e. not round-tripping between Affinity Photo and Photoshop). On the face of it the applications are similar, but in reality many subtle differences between them make this process incredibly difficult. Quote

Ok... but leaving layers empty isn't even acceptable for a one way trip... quite an annoying issue (with seemingly a simple fix) to have been left in for apparently almost a year now? IPv6 1 Quote
